Getting the Protest Right

"The anti-Wall Street protests, Occupy Wall Street, are picking up steam. Listening to the protesters, one can’t help but think: They are getting something right but oh so much wrong. They are right in the sense that there is something amiss. The elite of this country are doing things at the expense of everyone else, and yes, the big corporations are involved. Even some libertarians are admitting that “capitalism” is the problem. The problem, however, is that the protesters solution is either outright socialism or some other form of increased government involvement. The difference is that libertarians are attacking “capitalism” not the free market. But let’s come back to that."
